Most energy retailers buy energy at a low wholesale price and sell it to you at a higher fixed price, keeping the difference as profit. We do it differently.
With Prairie Power’s Floating Rates, you pay exactly what we pay + a small fee
We give you direct access to the Alberta wholesale market. You pay the real-time Spot Price for your energy, plus a tiny administration fee to keep our lights on.
Please reach us at customercare@prairie-power.ca if you cannot find an answer to your question.
Floating rates are seasonal. For electricity, prices often rise during extreme heat (AC usage) or extreme cold. For natural gas, prices rise in winter. However, floating customers typically "make up" for these expensive months with significant savings during the spring and autumn "shoulder seasons."
Absolutely! Many of our customers choose a Fixed Rate for Electricity (to avoid volatility) but keep a Floating Rate for Natural Gas (to save money, as gas prices have historically been more stable than power). You can mix and match to build your perfect plan.
